-Caveat Lector-
The thought that "rogue" elements perpetrated 9-11 has never entered my
mind and it is, to me, absolutely ludicrous. That is one of the oldest
red herrings in the book. I cannot discuss this now as I am about to
publish a major story but I can guarantee that you will never hear me
suggest that a few CIA guys got drunk and decided to pull this attack
off. This is something that can ONLY have been carried out as a matter
of policy with a distinct chain of command reaching ABOVE the White
House.

Subject: [CIA-DRUGS] MIKE RUPPERT -Re: "Mike" Vreeland: The Tight-Lipped
Everyman's Deep Throat
Say, Mike -- thought I'd let you know that my own interpretation of what
I'=
ve read of your writings is that HIGH ESCHELONS of government had
foreknowle=
dge; indeed, I don't believe that you've even ever mentioned "rogue
elements=
" in terms of the CIA,et al.
That was my conclusion on the morning of 911 --- as a "stupid"
American, i=
t is inconceivable to me that what occured could occur without inside
help -=
- and thus I believe that ALL our intelligence agencies are/were
severely co=
mpromised.
My conclusion may be utterly erroneous; however, since it was made
during t=
he shock of real time 911, it is deeply embedded, whether factual or
not.
AND, for me -- the term "insiders", the ones who I believe are
ultimately b=
ehind this atrocious travesty -- for me, they can live in and be
citizens of=
any country, not just America, whose intelligence apparatus appeared
severe=
ly sabotaged.
So, anyway, I haven't seen this hypothesis in YOUR writings, which I
think =
I would have noticed, as it was my first reaction, and thus has a
certain "p=
et" theory status.
I have seen you refer repetitively to high eschelons of government - and
I =
don't know if your thesis is correct about their foreknowledge.
And although neither you or Sean asked, I consider you both to be
American =
citizens who are genuinely concerned with unravelling the enigmas
currently =
surrounding 911, and I do not see either of you having allegiance to
anythi=
ng other than what is the best for American interests, both long term
and sh=
ort term.
